Google has signed a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with Enlight Renewable Energy to power its operations in Oklahoma.

The 15-year deal will see Enlight’s US subsidiary, Clēnera Holdings, supply 200MW of solar power from its 250MW Solstice project in LeFlore County, Oklahoma.

Construction on the project is expected to commence in 2028, with commercial operations slated for 2029. In addition to its solar array, the project is expected to deploy 800MWh of battery energy storage on-site, to be installed as part of a second phase of development.

The project will deliver power to the Southwest Power Pool market, which will subsequently be used to supply Google’s data center operations in the state.

“Google is committed to growing in a way that supports our neighbors and strengthens the electricity grid,” said Will Conkling, director of energy and power, Google. “This new agreement with Clēnera will help bring more power generation online in Oklahoma, contributing to a more robust, affordable, and reliable energy system for all.”

The deal is Enlight’s first US PPA with a commercial customer. Enlight was founded in 2008. It develops and operates solar, wind, and energy storage systems. It has 3GW of operational renewable assets across the US, Israel, and 10 European countries. In March, it won an Israel Land Authority tender to develop an integrated data center and renewable energy complex in Ashalim, southern Israel.

“The Solstice project marks a new chapter for Enlight and Clēnera in the US,” said Enlight CEO Adi Leviatan. “By signing this agreement with Google, we are expanding our US customer base beyond utilities to large load commercial customers, including the fast-growing data center sector.”

Google has grown its presence in the Sooner State over recent years. It has an existing campus in Pryor, which was announced by Google in 2007 and launched in 2011. It has been expanded at regular intervals since. Last August, Google doubled down on its focus on the state, announcing plans to invest $9 billion to expand its cloud and AI infrastructure in Oklahoma. Following the investment announcement, earlier this year, the company saw a proposed data center development in Tulsa approved by the local council.
